49ers to put Gore in two-running back system?

FrankGore
49ers GM Scot McCloughan strongly hinted in a Q&A on the team's website that he wants to use a two-running back system going forward.

New OC Jimmy Raye thinks Frank Gore is a 25-carry per game back, but McCloughan said "I think nowadays you have to have that type of (two-back) system...especially with our (physical) approach on offense. You don’t just need a change of pace guy...you need two backs that can have production." The Niners have enough holes to fill that a new back is unlikely to top their priority list. Perhaps they'll draft another late-rounder like Thomas Clayton.
